‘Nightfall Bay’ By Carolyn J. Rose

Her grandfather’s words rang in Rain Paxton’s mind as she gunned her car east from Vancouver toward the Columbia Gorge. When the sun rose, her grandmother Meadow would pass from this world. And the gift would pass to Rain.

If she was worthy of it.

If she accepted it.

If, when the moment came, she had a choice.

I can’t remember a time, even as a child, when I haven’t been passionate about books and reading.
I began blogging, when I realised just how many other people out there shared my passion for the written word and I have been continually amazed at the wealth of books that are available and the amount of great new friends I have made, from literally 'The Four Corners Of The World'.

I noticed that you had added this one to your ‘Want To Read’ list, something I am trying very hard to resist doing these days, as I have now topped the 1,000 mark and counting, and with the best will in the world I shall never make more than a small dent in that number!

The trouble is, there are just so many great books being recommended every day and it is good to have the list in order to jog my memory (just in case I should ever find myself with nothing handy to read !!)

Apart from that, I love the Goodreads Giveaways and the information on the site about books and authors is always so comprehensive.

Rain may find herself not relishing this particular gift, I know it wouldn’t be my ideal memory of my grandmother!

Thanks for taking the time to comment, I always appreciate it and have a good weekend 🙂

I’m curious about the “gift” and would keep reading to find out more. Also, since I live in the Pacific Northwest, I’d enjoy the local setting. I hope you enjoy the story.
My Friday post features Blueprints.

As the book’s author Carolyn J. Rose, also comes from your neck of the woods, her writing is very much concentrated around the ‘local’ area, so you might enjoy some of her stories, you should check out her website!

Thanks for the kind thoughts. After waiting exactly one month to the day, from my dad passing away, to the funeral day, I must admit that I shall be pleased when it is all over and there can be some closure.

You always manage to keep your current reads as a surprise, which is no good at all for those of us with a slightly OCD nature, who really need to know what they are when you begin reading, so that we can share in the anticipation 🙂

This will be the first time that Carolyn has ventured into the world of the paranormal and having read so many of her previous books, I shall be most interested to see how that works out for her and for myself of course, with the reading enjoyment factor. I’m not sure that this particular gift is one I would want!!

I am nosey anyway, tis why I never read the next chapter for a new book at the end of your current, I HAVE to know lol and you are usually waiting months. I think anything with intrigue will pull you in 😀 Especially if it is well done.

Thanks for taking the time to stop by this week. I enjoy ‘meeting’ new people and I shall always value and appreciate your visits and comments.

I must admit that in the majority of cases, I probably wouldn’t choose a book based solely on its first lines, as quite often they are meant for setting the scene and don’t really take you straight into the action.

The premise is obviously the thing which more often than not determines the selling power of a book, although I don’t like it if the synopsis gives away too many spoilers and doesn’t leave me anticipating a storyline or its outcome.

I am also guilty as charged of sharing my “First Lines” of a book long before I am probably going to start reading it, which is quite frustrating, as I am often tempted to read on for a few more pages if those opening lines are very intriguing, and have to stop myself rather than spoil everything for later.

I have quite eclectic reading tastes and so long as there is an interesting storyline attached, which is well written, I am quite easily satisfied 🙂
